Omer spent his youth at Eskisehir before joining Gaziantepspor in 1997.

Following criticism by chairman Celal Dogan, he had become second choice to Fevzi Tuncay at Gaziantep but returned to the team in the latter stages of the 2001-02 season.

Due to his shaven headed features, he is fondly known as Barthez Omer.
